The 2021 IPL has been a tournament to forget so far for Sunrisers Hyderabad. However, Jonny Bairstow has led from the front with his batting and has 248 runs to his name. Manish Pandey has also hit two half centuries and is averaging 48.25. With the ball, Rashid Khan has 10 wickets at 17.20, an identical average to 2020.
Mumbai Indians’ captain Rohit Sharma has only one half century so far but has scored the most runs for his side. He has 250 at a strike rate of 128.20, a very similar rate to his last two seasons. With the ball, the Rahul Chahar, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah trio continue to deliver and have taken 25 wickets between them.
New Sunrisers’ captain Kane Williamson was dismissed for the first time in the tournament in their last game against Rajasthan Royals and comes into this match with an average at 128. Kieron Pollard smashed 87 from 34 balls against Chennai Super Kings, an innings which included 8 sixes. This was a record for this year’s IPL equalled by Jos Buttler 24 hours later.

SRH vs MI T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, IPL 2021
Bottom of the table Sunrisers Hyderabad come up against the 2019 and 2020 IPL winners Mumbai Indians for the second time in this year’s IPL on Tuesday. Sunrisers, now under the captaincy of New Zealand’s Kane Williamson, have won only one game from seven. Mumbai Indians, led by Rohit Sharma, have eight points on the board and are still in touch with the top three sides. Read on as we preview this clash of the 2021 IPL. The match will be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi and will get underway at 19:30 local time.
The form and results of Sunrisers are not pretty, however they are now under new leadership and possess match winners with the bat and ball. Jonny Bairstow and Kane Williamson can win a game on their own with the bat and Rashid Khan’s consistently high level performances with the ball deserve better outcomes.
Throughout the season we have lauded the bowling attack of Mumbai Indians, but it was the explosive batting of Kieron Pollard which got them over the line against the in form CSK. If they can get the openers, Pollard and the bowlers to all perform at once then they will have no problem in this fixture. Mumbai won the match between the sides earlier in the tournament by 13 runs.

SRH vs MI Match Toss Prediction
The only team to win the toss and bat first in Delhi was Sunrisers Hyderabad, however, that was with David Warner as captain. Both Kane Williamson and Rohit Sharma have chosen to field first at this ground since, and we expect them to do the same.
SRH vs MI Match Pitch Report
The Delhi pitch is certainly one the batsmen prefer rather than the bowlers. In the last four innings only one team have failed to post a score above 200.
Weather Report
Partly cloudy with the temperature falling from the mid to low thirties during the game.

SRH Team News & Playing 11
SRH Team News
The new look Sunrisers Hyderabad were well beaten by a Jos Buttler inspired Rajasthan Royals last time out. They made three changes with David Warner, Jagadeesha Suchith and Siddarth Kaul replaced by Mohammad Nabi, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Abdul Samad.
SRH Key Players
Jonny Bairstow - The England batsman had an incredible debut season in the IPL, hitting 445 runs at an average of 55.62. Comparatively last year’s efforts were poor but he looks back to his best in IPL 2021.
Kane Williamson - Taking over a struggling team midway through a competition is tough, but the New Zealand captain will lead from the front and is one of the most consistent batsmen around.
Rashid Khan - He has outbowled his team-mates in most games so far in the tournament but in the last game the difference between the two was marked. His economy rate was 6.00 with the others ranging from 9.25 - 21.00.
SRH Team Form
The change in captaincy didn’t bring about an immediate change in fortunes. Sunrisers have now lost their last three games and six of seven in the 2021 IPL.
SRH Predicted Playing 11
Abdul Samad, Jonny Bairstow (wk), Kane Williamson (c) , Manish Pandey, Vijay Shankar, Mohammad Nabi, Kedar Jadhav, Rashid Khan, Sandeep Sharma, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Khaleel Ahmed
SRH vs MI Dream11 Team Prediction, Captain, Vice Captain
Wicket-keeper
Jonny Bairstow (10) will be our wicketkeeper. He has made excellent starts without kicking on in the last couple of games and never stays without big runs for long
Batsmen
Rohit Sharma (10), Suryakumar Yadav (9.5), Kane Williamson (9), Kedar Jadhav (8) and Hardik Pandya (8.5) are our batsmen. Rohit and Williamson very rarely let their sides down
All-rounders
We’ve selected Kieron Pollard (9) as our all-rounder. His innings against CSK was immense and may well be the knock which ignites Mumbai’s season.
Bowlers
Rashid Khan (9.5), Trent Boult (9), Jasprit Bumrah (9) and Deepak Chahar (8.5) make up our bowling attack. The Mumbai trio complemented by Rashid Khan is quite a proposition.
Captain/Vice-captain
Rohit Sharma will be captain, his deputy will be Rashid Khan
SRH vs MI Dream11 Team Prediction
Batsmen:Rohit Sharma(c), Suryakumar Yadav, Kane Williamson, Kedar Jadhav, Hardik Pandya
Successive wins have given the table a much more pleasant look for fans of Mumbai Indians and they now look well placed to mount a competitive defence of their title. They brought in Dhawal Kulkarni and Jimmy Neesham in the win against CSK and it would be a surprise to see them change their XI for this fixture.
MI Key Players
Rohit Sharma - The calm and relaxed captain exudes authority in the field and has made very useful contributions with the bat in nearly every game. A big, IPL-defining innings may well be around the corner
Kieron Pollard - Even if he were to retire now, people would talk for decades to come about that innings against CSK. Any opposition will always be wary when he comes to the crease.
Jasprit Bumrah - India’s star bowler conceded 58 runs against CSK, the most he has ever conceded in a T20. However, he still took the crucial wicket of Moeen Ali which may well have been the difference between victory and defeat.
MI Team Form
After completing the second highest IPL run chase in history, you can make a strong argument that Mumbai Indians are coming into form at the right time. They now have two successive wins and crucially, their batting is firing.
We are backing Jonny Bairstow, Kane Williamson and Manish Pandey with the bat for Sunrisers Hyderabad. Excluding David Warner, they are the leading run scorers for the team.
For Mumbai Indians we are backing Rohit Sharma, Quinton de Kock and Suryakumar Yadav. There are undoubtedly fireworks to come after the top three but we reckon one of these will make a big score.
We are backing Jasprit Bumrah, Trent Boult and Rahul Chahar to cause problems for the CSK batsmen. Very few players have found the going easy against this trio.
For Mumbai Indians we have gone with Jasprit Bumrah, Trent Boult and Rahul Chahar. The trio struggled against CSK but they are smart and experienced enough to respond in this game.
All the evidence in this game points towards Mumbai Indians notching up another win and sending a message across the globe that they are serious about making it three IPLs in a row. Even a much improved Sunrisers Hyderabad will struggle to contain Mumbai and we can see only one winner.

Mumbai Indians can bring in Ishan Kishan for Today's Game
Ishan Kishan can be brought in for today's game against SRH. Hardik Pandya is playing as a batsman in the team and has not been able to score so far. Therefore MI can bring in Ishan Kishan who is a regular batsman and he can be destructive on Delhi's pitch where every other team had scored more than 200 in each innings so far being played at this ground.
